My name is Chas. I am a photographer in Plainview, NY. I started out in 1974 doing Head Shots & portfolio work for models, actors, dancers, etc. and Rock & Roll concert photography. I left photography for a while but, am back actively shooting again. Although I still shoot film on occasions; I work almost exclusively in digital now. I am also adept at Photoshop and use it for retouch and artistic photo-manipulations. I am equally comfortable shooting on location or in the studio. I shoot mostly in the Metro NY area but, I am not opposed to traveling for the right project. Also, I am originally from North Carolina and visit there a few times a year.
I shoot glamour, fashion, commercial and promotional as well as creative and artistic projects. On this page, I will be posting my work in the area of Glamour, Pinup and Artistic Nude.
You can view my other work on my main page # 245121.
I am looking for models to do creative photography with to our mutual benefit. If you have an interesting idea that you would like to shoot. . . let's talk!
I would like to work more with "Inked" models, especially if there is a major tattoo that we could build a theme around.
I also would like to shoot more alternative models, especially in a Steam Punk motif. I have become very interested in this genre and want to explore it.
I am especially interested in building my Artistic Nude and Glamour work.
PLEASE NOTE: My Series and Theme Projects are all
TFCD meaning I will provide the best images from the shoot via email and/or CD. These will be fully retouched images in both Full Resolution (for printing) and resized (for posting on the web). The number of finished images I provide depends on the project, and must be discussed and agreed upon before the shoot. In most cases I post watermarked proofs on a secure website for evaluation or burn them to a CD within 3 days after the shoot.
In no case do I ever give a CD with all the unedited images. I am sure that as a model you only want your best work on display; likewise, as a photographer who is passionate about his work, I only want my best work on display as well. . .'nuff said.
